B.A. in Philosophy

All LSU undergraduate philosophy majors receive rigorous training in ethics, history
of philosophy, and logic. To fill out their major, students choose from a variety
of courses covering a number of areas of philosophy according to their individual
interests. Partly because of the interdisciplinary nature of philosophical study,
a significant number of philosophy majors also major in another discipline.

Our major has a single concentration which students may optionally choose to declare.
The concentration in Law, Ethics, and Social Justice is appropriate for students interested
in the intersection of philosophical questions and normative issues in law and public
life, and considering a variety of career fields, including law, politics, activism,
public service, charitable work, and more.
